Octopath Traveler Launches for PlayStation, Octopather Traveler 2 Launches for Xbox

Square Enix announced last year that Octopath Traveler 2 would be coming to Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and Game Pass at some point in 2024, and recent leaks claimed that that would be happening in June itself. At the same time, amidst recent age ratings in Taiwan, it looked like the original Octopath Traveler was also set for a PlayStation release at long last. Surprisingly enough, both of those releases have now happened, coming out of nowhere without a prior announcement.

Octopath Traveler is now available on the PlayStation Store for PS5 and PS4 at a price of $59.99, while Octopath Travaler 2 is available on the Xbox Store for Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One at the same price (while also being available via Game Pass). Additionally, Square Enix is also selling a bundle that includes both games on both the PS Store and the Xbox Store, as well as the Switch eShop and Steam, at a price of $74.99.

Both Octopath Traveler 1 and are also available on Nintendo Switch and PC. The former has sold over 3 million units worldwide as of September 2022, while the latter stands at 1 million units sold as of last June.
